scarface and godfather

I am playing godfather now (for a few months already), and enjoy it. I never think a one player game can be played for such long time (you know, do extortions, hit contracts and other side works besides the main story line).

I want to know, compare to godfather, how is scarface? Same fun? What are the difference between them?

Im stuck @ the training mission scene right at the start of the game!!!! Ive had about 10 go`s at it & just cant get past it-the follow through punch as told to do so by Luca Brassi. Is it really something easy or what am I doing wrong??

Ive had the guy down-strangled him, nutted him but he just wont die & Im a big fan of the Godfather films so I want to get on at this.

Godfather to Mafia... hmmmmh yeah they're really very similar. But hands down, Mafia's still the better game. It's the story that delivers.
Don't get me wrong, Godfather has a good story, too, but the Mafia story was simply epic.
How ever, The Godfather is a lot more brutal than Mafia, and you have a lot more freedom in the city, and you can customize your protagonist as you wish. There's always a lot of stuff to do, such as taking over enemy locations, taking out enemy warehouses to get some extra cash, starting a mob war, robbing some banks, and and and... Or you can just run around and go postal. Really, in The Godfather, you won't get tired so fast.

@ kmcheng A free roaming game is a game in which you can go everywhere and do everything at every time, like in GTA. Another word would be a sandbox game.

@ willowbank if I remember right, you have to throw one of the guys over the ledges.
